i thought the new gen2 has cps + vim technology??..
the lower spec one is cps + iafm rite??...

why lower spec gen2 has no cps ahh??... unsure.gif

CPS are combo with VIM while IAFM is a stand alone unit but has the same purpose as VIM, to provice better fuel mixing at lower rev, hence imrove torque. icon_rolleyes.gif

Why lower spec no CPS? COST nod.gif

IMO, the Hi-Line Gen.2 CPS is too pricey, and the difference is just 4k than Waja CPS. whistling.gif

True, but waja is more luxury compare to gen 2. It is different class. You will notice the diff when you sit inside both. It is like civic and accord.

QUOTE(imperialrealcs @ May 1 2008, 10:59 PM)
nobody said waja are not luxury or same class as gen2..
like i said, gen2 is more sporty, so maybe TS prefer sporty than luxury?

Gen.2 no doubt is sportier than Waja. With bucket seat some more.. Add 18" rim with low profile tyre, already drool.gif

I will say, Waja more sportier.
With a bulky body, that's make a waja look sporty.
Lowered the car, 17" rims and dark color. Enough, no need wajalution look.

Need to put some skirting to make it sportier.. Gen.2 CPS no need. laugh.gif

After driving for a month, here is what i feel about the car.

1. You will not feeling when the CPS kick in at 3800rpm. No jerk felt.

2. Have the same resonance (vibration) around 3000rpm region. Same like campro engine.

3. FC i would say similar to campro.

4. Love the leather seat and finishing. But found out that the seating position are higher than persona.

5. Compare persona and gen2 cps side by side you will notice the suspension for persona seems higher.

6. Headroom no need to compare. Persona much better.

7. The bodykit look nice but becareful because its quite low.

8. Adjustable meter lighting. Didn't bother. Always put the highest.

9. Autocruise. Can activate above 40kmph. Brake pedal to cancel off. Accelerate does not cancel.

Other than that i think it would be similar to other gen2. Sorry i cant compare between non cps engine because i have not driven one. (Driven waja before long time ago)

Can feel in 2nd gear if using MT. brows.gif brows.gif

pump full tank n calculate how many km u can move for 1 month period.

don't tell me you feel good FC with your campro waja ?
*
Please use the correct method to calculate FC bro. laugh.gif

16cent/km -18cent/km for 1.6 car is quite decent already. Last time my LMST (1.3) also got me average 15cent/km. What kind of FC you expect from a 1.6 car?

Good one Sphiroth, the RM3 is not enough for 1 teh tarik and nasi lemak...

Before getting Waja CPS, my top of the list preferred car is City VTEC due to its low FC and the VTEC drool.gif But even with 5cent/km FC difference, will only result saving of RM15 (RM300 fuel monthly) and maybe another RM30 per month from the free service. But the difference in monthly repayment is almost RM200. sweat.gif

Haha i sorta in ur position now, i still thinking whether to get a 2nd hand city VTEC or gen2 CPS. I should decide by end of this yr or maybe early next year on that wink.gif

City VTEC shiftronic is so cool. But the CVT maintainence and reliability worrying me. As a ocasionally drag my engine to redline. Thats why prefered manual. laugh.gif
